Jaconé Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s happening at Jaconé.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a solid run of swell kicking off Monday morning the 7th. It’s not a small one, so this is for the crew who know what they’re doing. The water temp is sitting right on 73°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no nasty surprises when you hit the water.

Monday morning the 7th sees a 8ft south swell rolling in with a period of 11 seconds, and the wind is dead glass from the SSW at just 3 mph. It’s going to be clean as a whistle. The combined energy is strong at 1579, so there’s plenty of grunt in the water. This is a standout session for the experienced surfer. Monday afternoon stays glassy with a light NNW breeze, swell dropping just a touch to 8ft from the SSW.

Tuesday the 8th is still a good call. Morning sees 5ft of south swell with an offshore breeze from the ENE at 6 mph, making for clean, lined-up waves. The energy is moderate at 873. Afternoon stays clean with a cross-offshore wind, swell holding at 5ft.

Wednesday the 9th starts with a glassy morning, 5ft of easterly swell but the period is a short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit bouncy and less powerful. The energy is moderate at 627. Still, with glassy conditions, it’s worth a paddle. The afternoon drops off to 3ft.

Thursday the 10th is a great call. The morning is clean with a 4ft south swell, long period of 12 seconds, and a light cross-offshore breeze. The afternoon is the real highlight: glassy conditions, 4ft south swell, still a 12-second period, and the energy builds to 667. This is classic, clean, long-period groundswell that will wrap in nicely.

Friday the 11th is another top pick. Clear skies, glassy morning, 4ft south swell with a very long period of 14 seconds. The energy is 678. That’s proper groundswell, and with glassy conditions, it’s going to be a joy. The afternoon stays clean with a cross-offshore breeze.

Now, Saturday the 12th takes a turn. The morning is a bit of a mess with a cross-onshore wind from the west at 9 mph, making for choppy conditions on a 5ft ENE swell. The afternoon is worse – a strong 19 mph south cross-onshore wind, dropping to 2ft. That’s a write-off.

Sunday the 13th is a beast, but only for the experts. We’re looking at a 10ft SSW swell with a 12-second period, and the combined energy is a massive 2715. That’s powerful. The wind is light cross-onshore in the morning, but the swell is too big for this break. This is a big-wave day for the chargers only.

Monday the 14th has a fresh offshore breeze from the NE at 19 mph, keeping the face clean on a 8ft SSE swell. The energy is still very strong at 2065. This is another one for the experienced crew. The afternoon holds similar conditions.

After that, the week settles into a more moderate, mixed bag. Tuesday the 15th morning is a write-off with onshore wind, but the afternoon turns glassy again with a 5ft SSE swell – a nice sneaky session.

Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th are marginal, with light cross-offshore winds but not much size or consistency. Friday the 18th sees a pickup in energy, with a 7ft to 7ft south swell, long period of 14 seconds, and clean cross-offshore winds. The energy is strong at 1458 to 1775. This is a promising day for the experienced surfer.

Saturday the 19th is the next standout. Morning shows a clean 8ft south swell, 13-second period, with a moderate offshore breeze from the ENE at 16 mph. The energy is very strong at 2063. This will be a big, clean, powerful day. Afternoon stays clean.

Sunday the 20th backs off to 5ft with a gentle offshore breeze in the morning – a nice, manageable day for the intermediate crowd. The rest of the period into the 21st and 22nd fades into smaller, weaker swell with more cross-onshore or light winds, not offering much to get excited about.

So, to sum up the standouts: Monday morning the 7th and Thursday afternoon the 10th are the pick of the first week – glassy, clean, with proper south groundswell. For the second week, Saturday the 19th looks like a ripper for the experienced crew, with a strong, clean offshore swell.

Stay safe out there, and keep your eyes on the horizon.

Rusty.
